Well, use a fast colour film and a wide angle lens, fix the camera pointing
up with the f-stop wide open and set the camera on b or t (if you've got it)
leave the shutter open for about 1 minute.

You will see coloured star trails on the film when developed. I suggest you
use a tranny.  Printers will not be able to do it justice/

Was just wondering if anyone here has photographed the night sky?  Very
clear, taken from a dark area such as a campsite in the middle of the
woods??
 Thanks for any input :o)
